 Shot on the fly at a local middle school basketball game. There's another shot that I like better, but had distracting elements that I couldn't remove for this challenge.

I like the way this image is framed and the crisp focus on your subject: the basketball is stunning and the flag on the sleeve is a nice touch. The posture of your subject is perfect; as the wife of a basketball coach, I can't tell you how many times I have seen this stance. Really nice shot which fits the challenge well with a twist. Great job.

Good, but I'd like to see his face.

Hmmm, he's not really doing anything, is he? I'd like it more if he were showing authority beyond the uniform. Technically it's a very good shot though.

yes, this is an authority figure. too bad you couldn't catch him exerting his authority : ( also, it can really make a difference scoring if you true up your horizons, rotating your images to remove the tilt. good job with the focus and general composition.
